If that's the case, then it's incredible.
I normally expect swords to be metal though, so it confused me. :P

Cart looks...weird, spacial relations look wrong, it looks too wide from the front and back.
Or maybe it's just me.

Newest one may look kinda busy on the left side of the blade. I'll try and improve it eventualy.

Here are all version:
Attachment 52147
First one was for Maloria, then I made a second one improving the ice feel (kinda) and it is Maloria's current "Eternal Frost" sword.

So I took bits of the first version and made up a third one

The ice sword is way beyond the first two.... What the hell happened? Did you just randomly come up with a decent sword? The first two are pretty plain compared to the third.

It's called practice!
Well as you can see on the last one, I've used a complete dark outline. The two first swords have a dark outline on the left side only. I believe having a smaller sword creates a better effect too

Pretty good, looks a bit dull though, also looks like it's pillow shaded but I think that is just because of the dark colours.

Think you could make an animated red "aura" emitting from the sides of the blade?

I hope you manage to pull something awesome off with that red because it seems like a difficult one to get right on a blade.

I was not really looking to make it red, it's hard enough like that to make a good looking blade lol
well, I know this type of blade is déjÃ* vu, but it looked nice enough on such shape:

Attachment 52225

Next I could probably add fancy effects to it, but I'll see about that later. Got much more in the making!

Did you intend for it to look worn? It looks rough and ineffective. The nicks don't look like it's serrated but more like it's had its time, which is contrary to the colouring and inner texture of the blade.
